The tennis court, the pool, newer building, everything seemd to work well. Live band at night.

You cant walk into metro manila like at other hotels, this can be good or bad depending on what you want to do. This is a non factor i think if you were with a family.
Hot water took a long time to get hot.

As an experienced traveller, the minute I stepped foot in Sofitel Plaza hotel, another chapter was added to my worldly experience.
The lovely flowers display at the foyer added an elegant touch to the entrance. The spacious and comfortable room has a delightful view and room service was impeccable.
The breakfast offered a wide selection of international cuisines which were both tempting and delicious.
Last but not least, the comfortable chairs in the garden which pampered the guests to no end.
A job well done and I thank you for a most enjoyable stay.

Service in the pool area, difficulties in payments with foreign credit cards, miss information in front desk, communication between the workers from shift to shift was poor, airplane noise time to time was too loud.

I liked the rooms, restaurants, pool area.
